Evo Stik Premier Division
Frickley Athletic 2-0 Marine
Frickley climbed out of the relegation zone for the first time this season and rocketed up to 15th after winning for the third consecutive time.
The magnificent revival under Lee Morris continues and one more win could take them into the top half – such an event would be remarkable considering how they started the season.
Noel Burdett got the show on the road early on for Frickley by reacting to a rebound after a shot was saved.
More good chances followed, but Frickley had to wait until well into the second half for the second goal – a powerful header from talisman Luke Hinsley.
Frickley also put their rivalry with Shaw Lane AFC aside by raising £201.62 from a bucket collection for the Dan Wilkinson Foundation.
